Description

A Brooklyn favourite with a national following, Franny's is known for its simple, seasonal Southern Italian dishes and exceptional pizza. Alice Waters says it best in her forword: "This book captures the beating heart of what makes Franny's so beautiful: its simplicity, its ability to make the ordinary surprising, and - above all - its celebration of honest everyday cooking." Franny's is filled with recipes that are destined to become classics. Chef Andrew Feinberg plays with traditional Southern Italian cuisine and makes the dishes lighter and brighter. New favourites - including Roasted Romano Beans with Calabrese Olives; Clam, Chili, and Parsley Pizza; and Linguine with Meyer Lemon - sit side by side with perfect executions of timeless Italian dishes like Marinated Artichokes; Baked Sausage and Polenta; and Bucatini alla Puttanesca. Feinberg breaks down his techniques for the home cook, while offering cutting-edge food combinations, spinning the typical ingredients in unexpected directions. Teeming with irresistible full-colour photographs, Franny's shows how simple preparations of quality ingredients can create food that is much more than the sum of its parts.show more
